Thought this was funny on Amiga Inc's page...

Just a placeholder until the content train arrives.

What we\'re witnessing is the sad, lonely crowing of that last, doomed cock.

It's funny (and saddening) how they also managed to make their site look like it was designed in 1997, although I'm sure it was 'revamped' only a year or 3 ago.

Sadly, the content train collided head-on with the sanity train.  All are believed lost.

I just spent some (wasted?) time browsing around the Amiga Inc. website looking for anything new or worthwhile and started wondering what would happen if they should prevail in the OS4.x lawsuit against Hyperion and gain full control of the Amiga future?

Specifically what I was wondering about was how many of us here and on all the other Amiga related forum sites would start singing a different tune and instead of bashing Amiga Inc., they would support their efforts to continue OS4.x and beyond?

I ask this because I see very little, if any support of Amiga Inc. on any of the forums I visit regularly any more.  It appears that the few users that used to support them have gone silent, or have changed their minds and started supporting Hyperion, since they are the only company that is offering an Amiga OS that the community wants (I mean really, who here uses AA2?) and AInc.'s claims about OS5 and new hardware seem to be nothing more than more smoke and vaporware.

I don't blame the AInc. supporters from avoiding this place as it is likely that they would be greeted with hostility and humiliation if they were to publicly show any support of AInc.
How are you helping the Amiga community? :)
